I’m really excited about speaking at SQL Saturday on my favorite topic!
SQLSaturday is a free training event for Microsoft Data Platform professionals and those wanting to learn about SQL Server, Business Intelligence and Analytics. I’m all for that!
At this event, I’ll be discussing Accelerating DevOps and TDM Using Data Virtualization. This is my favorite topic, because for the 20 years that I worked as a DBA, I ran into the same roadblock time and again. The roadblock of data volume.
“DevOps” is a conflation of parts of the words “development” and “operations”, and it represents the grass-roots movement to merge application development, application testing, and IT operations into one continuous stream. All tasks from coding to testing to operations must be automated so that new features and fixes can be delivered on a continual flow.
